E- Auxiliary verb Can & Can't
These words are used to talk about ability, awareness, and possibility. They are also used
to say that someone has permission to do something. These uses are dealt with separately in
this entry. Can and could are called modals.
Both can and could are followed by an infinitive without to.
I envy people who can sing. I could work for twelve hours a day.
F. Negative Forms:
The negative form of can is cannot or can't. Cannot is never written 'can not'. The negative
form of could is could not or couldn't. To form the negative of be able to, you either put
not or another negative word in front of able, or you use the expression be unable to.
Many elderly people cannot afford telephones. - I can't swim very well.
It was so dark you could not see anything. - They couldn't sleep.
We were not able to give any answers. - We were unable to afford the entrance fee.
PRESENT TO CAN - CANNNOT – CAN’T PAST - COULDN’T
I Can CANNNOT – CAN’T I Could COULDN’T
You Can CANNNOT – CAN’T You Could COULDN’T
He Can CANNNOT – CAN’T He Could COULDN’T
